Rascal Flatts with Journey... Lady A with Hot Chelle Rae... Isn't this supposed to be a country awards show? This is exactly why I don't think Pop sounding songs are going to get shunned by Country Radio ;)

^Oh, I agree...but why even have country and pop be separate then, if more and more non-country acts keep popping up at country awards shows and steal the headlines?

I want Carrie to win VOTY, as much as I love "Safe & Sound."

I think Carrie WILL win Video. Safe & Sound seems like the competition and it wasn't a mainstream hit, plus Carrie is fresher right now. I guess Dirt Road Anthem has a big following, but I'd expect Carrie to win.

I love Miranda... I like Ashley Monroe... but I was definitely not a fan of that song.

I'm thinking about looking back into the earlier decades of country music (e.g. 1990's and early 2000's). What one of those hosts said about country music being for partying disappointed me some.

Jana Kramer was terrific --- it's like she was singing that to someone I have been raving about Jana for the past few months with her album coming out this week. I have had several people tweet and message me in various was to tell me how much they liked her and that they would check her out from that one little spot on the award show. I think she sounded great even though she was nervous, really nervous as she said on one of the red carpet shows.

Jason Aldean wins CMT Performance of the Year for Tattoos On This Town from CMT Artists of the Year 2011.
...kind of surprised by that one. I actually thought Carrie had this one wrapped up, but congrats to Jason, nonetheless!

Thompson Square wins Duo Video of the Year for I Got You.
I really just...don't care for this Kenny song at all. But, then again, I've hardly ever cared for his music at all, so it's just another channel changer for me in the car, I suppose.

Honestly, I wanted "All Your Life" to take that one... but I obviously love Lady A and that song so I'm not too upset.

The Farm was...not so good. The girl sounded SO off. The first bad performance I have heard tonight, really. Shame because I love the song.
My favorite performance so far has been LBT...wow they were great. Band Perry, too.

"And now, here to perform another song about beer, here's Toby Keith!" If it's gotten so consistent that it's actually being scripted into these awards show monologues, then that's when you know that you need to change it up. Beer and America; the perfect summarization of Toby Keith's entire discography.

^I don't think Toby's earlier songs during the 90s and early 2000s were that bad, actually. I see what you're saying, though. Currently, I don't even know who to root for anymore in this genre, or any genre for that matter since everything's become so doggone fake. I'm aware musical tastes are purely subjective, but my mind's almost boggled at the moment.
